If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.

Chapter 785: Enlightenment in the World
"This gourd is a magical artifact given to you by the man named Di Jiuyin."

After a moment of silence, Gu An left after saying these words.

Lu Qiuxian did not ask any further questions, but simply stared at his back and watched him leave.

As Gu An's figure disappeared, the silver light on Lu Qiuxian's body gradually dissipated, revealing his true form. He was wearing a blue Taoist robe, with a young and handsome face. Even with a full head of white hair, he still looked like a young man, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Gu An's.

A smile spread across his face as he muttered to himself, "Just as I thought."

He held the white jade gourd in his hand, then turned and left.

Meanwhile, Gu An had returned to the Wushi Dojo. He heard Lu Qiuxian's words, but he had no other thoughts about them.

As long as he doesn't admit it, no one will know about the existence of life cycle; at most, they will think he is just going through a normal cycle.

Normal reincarnation requires the soul to enter the six realms. No matter how high one's cultivation level is, if one does not want to use the original body, one must separate the soul. However, lifespan reincarnation is different. Gu An does not need the original body to come in person. He can complete a reincarnation in just one hour and make an impact on reality. If this were to spread, it would definitely cause great trouble.

Gu An was very curious about how the Heavenly Emperor was reincarnated and where the Heavenly Emperor's original self was.

He returned to his room, sat down at the table, took out a pen and paper, and wrote the four characters "Eternal Dao" on the paper.

Di Jiuyin died quickly, but Gu An still managed to glean some information about the Eternal Dao.

Eternal Supreme!

Before the Great Way!

The origin of this eternal Dao must be extremely terrifying, and it is unknown whether the Heavenly Court is aware of it.

Gu An only wrote the four characters "Eternal Dao Supreme" and did not write "Eternal Supreme" to avoid causing great karmic consequences.

He looked at the four characters "Eternal Dao" and recalled the intense light of time and space he had faced earlier, feeling the boundless fortune of "Eternal Dao".

Upon closer inspection, he found that this aura was very similar to that of the Great Dao Emperor, but judging from the manifestation of the aura alone, it was not the Great Dao Emperor.

This is interesting.

……

For Gu An, the Eternal Dao Extreme was merely a force to be wary of. When he dealt with Di Jiuyin, he left no trace, completely isolating himself from cause and effect. Even Lu Qiuxian was unaware of his true identity.

Since then, Gu An has seen Lu Qiuxian's causal relationship with the River of Fate begin to separate, and he is becoming an independent being.

Seeing that Lu Qiuxian had no intention of coming to find him, he felt relieved.

No matter what Lu Qiuxian speculates, as long as it doesn't affect Gu An, it's fine.

He might secretly protect Lu Qiuxian out of consideration for their father-son bond from past lives, but he would never acknowledge him as his son.

In fact, he didn't owe Lu Qiuxian anything. Lu Han had already resurrected Lu Qiuxian at the cost of his life. The reason he was still concerned was just to fulfill Lu Han's regret.

By merging into Lu Han's memories, he essentially experienced Lu Han's life firsthand, and he also felt all of Lu Han's emotions.

Time marches on, like a great river, flowing ceaselessly, never stopping, and never turning back.

In his spare time, Gu An would pay attention to the struggle for the throne. The Tai Xian Shen Yuan faction was conquering more and more worlds. The power of the Demon Luo Clan and the Demon God's body shocked all the heavens. There were even earth-shattering legends of immortals and gods being torn apart alive by demon gods.

This great war, which has lasted for millions of years, has finally come to a head, but it is too early to say when it will end. Xuanyuan Renzun will not sit idly by and wait for his doom.

Once one side's entire world is completely swallowed up, it will be a war between emperors.

The battle of factions tests the emperor's charisma and strategy, while the final battle of the emperor proves his own strength. According to the old immortal Cixuan, the battle of factions represents victory or defeat; the winner, even if his personal strength is lacking, is still considered victorious.

When the emperor personally leads the battle, it is a battle of dignity. If both sides lose, the loser will face utter ruin.

Over the long years, the Tianling Great World has developed steadily. Although there are conflicts and wars in various places, the overall situation of the world is peaceful.

The talent of cultivators surpasses that of each generation.

A blink of an eye.

Three million years have passed.

Gu An's annual lifespan income is growing steadily, and his lifespan has reached more than 140 trillion years. He plans to continue saving, and then break through from the mid-stage of Hunyuan Tongxuan Venerable Immortal to the perfect Hunyuan Tongxuan Venerable Immortal in one go.

Over the years, he has helped Zhu Xi, Zui, Li Ya, Lü Xian and others when they encountered trouble. Zhang Bukui has become a heavenly soldier and can be resurrected even after death, which has saved him a lot of trouble.

After leaving the Heavenly Spirit Great World, Li Ya, Lü Xian, Chen Chuan and others were drawn into the struggle for the throne, while Zui had been wandering in the Primordial Imperial Domain for many years and also had his own grudges and affections.

Their lives were all fascinating, and Gu An found it very interesting to watch.

Compared to the life of a cultivator, Gu An prefers to experience the life of an ordinary person. He would even marry and have children, completing one normal and complete life after another.

When life ends and reincarnation begins, he will not bring the karma of the mortal world with him; this is a rule he set before entering the world.

This day.

After picking the herbs, Gu An returned to his life in the mortal world.

He walked down the street toward his courtyard. In this life, he was a constable, doing a leisurely job. He was not a chivalrous person bursting with a sense of justice and always passionate. He was just an ordinary constable, making a living by doing his job.

Along the way, acquaintances greeted him from time to time, and his life seemed no different from that of an ordinary person.

He likes this feeling, it calms his mind. He seems to be experiencing the world, but in reality, he is observing the world from the smallest details and thus gaining enlightenment.

Just as he arrived at the courtyard gate, a young woman ran out of the yard, took his arm, and said with a smile, "Husband, I'm pregnant!"

"Really?"

Gu An asked with feigned surprise, then reached out and touched the young woman's lower abdomen.

In the mortal world, he married many wives and concubines. Karma can disappear in reincarnation, but because he experienced the mortal world in his true form, he could not leave behind any bloodline. After all, the karma of bloodline can continue. Therefore, the children of each of his lives are new souls created by him through the way of creation.

Creating the souls of mortal spirits is not difficult for Gu An now. He ensures that these children do not inherit his bloodline and the karma of his soul; they are merely children of his identity in this life.

These children are essentially in their first incarnation and will eventually enter the cycle of reincarnation.

Gu An's understanding of the Way of Creation is becoming increasingly profound.

The couple were overjoyed, and Gu An decided to cook for his wife to celebrate her pregnancy. In the courtyard, there was also his wife's elderly father, who was also Gu An's master. He was an old constable who had broken a leg while driving away a demon that had entered the city, making it difficult for him to move around. Now he could only stay in the courtyard.

Because of his own experience, the old constable often advised Gu An not to be a hero.

He broke his leg while on official business, and the government abandoned him. The family he saved was so afraid that they moved away the next day without even thanking him.

Just as wisps of smoke rose from the chimney in the courtyard, a shooting star streaked across the sky and disappeared into the distance.

Standing in front of the stove, Gu An raised an eyebrow slightly and muttered to himself, "Have they traced it all the way to this realm?"
